Should I put all the include files in the same folder or do I have to edit the GDAutocaster.ahk script?
Deleting the include files wonāt make it open either.

You must have older .zip where I put .ahk instead of .exe by mistake.
Please download the program once more from here

but change .iniās content to what I quoted before

hi, thanks for all your work on this program. it seems very helpful and hopefully it can help my build.
so I have a primal strike spammer shaman that replaces left click auto attack. problem is, I also have to upkeep savagery which is also an auto attack replacer. I donāt want any optional features, just to have them both be cast on my left click. savagery is on the 0 key.
cheers ~

Savagery is the hardest skill to autocast, I made better autocasting specially for it.
In fact, itās the melee Savagery that is the hardest to autocast properly.
Because with ranged Savagery every monster is in range and when my program fires Savagery, then Savagery is fired in-game as well.
Whereas with melee, youāre not always in the monsterās range if fighting groups and my program doesnāt know when to fire it. It doesnāt know the precise moment you approach the monster because youāre just constantly holding LMB. Well unless you use the tricking Iām writing about later which is to
But this is only the problem in case of weak, one-shottable group of enemies
periodic casts work in the following way
How to play with it properly
it will work 100% fine on enemies that take some time to kill (not one-shotted)
it may not work to well on group of enemies that are one-shotted (on the other hand you donāt need Savagery against them either too much)
how improve the autocasting performance against groups of weak enemies
as I mentioned before it fires Savagery right after you click
another issue is if you move your cursor on top of your character while moving, Savagery may attack in-place in a vary jarring way
GDAutocaster.ini

suspend_key=Tab

You may also experiment with delay1 for some reason
yeah dude its working! thank you so much. when I move the cursor on top of my character it does cast savagery, but its not that big of a deal since the radius is small enough and I can train myself to avoid it. interestingly enough if iām holding left click and I move it fast enough over my character it doesnāt cast savagery which is nice. it has trouble proccing against one shot enemies like you said, but again not a big deal. it does work if I click instead of hold most times.
anyway thanks again man this is a huge help.

Does this have a radius associated with it or do you have to be on top of the object/run over it to pick it up ? It would be sweet if it just picks up everything you can see on screen.
No it doesnāt. You would have to mod it I guess. But still it makes picking up items a lot more pleasant.
Very true. I use the GI pickup settings atm. Only problem there is that is picks up all the greens, most of which I donāt want. A better filter in GrimDawn like Filterblade or StupidFatHobbit for POE would be nice
Also other possibility comes to mind
Savagery on double left click
For
a change of gameplay/fun minigame
if you donāt like a small chance of having accidental Savagery attack while just moving
0% chance of Savagery while fighting weak, one-shootable monsters
that sounds cool, altho what I have now works fine. if you donāt mind typing it up so that I can save it somewhere that would be sweet. also might be a good idea to have this part and your first reply to my post in the OP so noobs like me can see it and try to do it themselves.
Even though i have used autohotkey several times in everything from wow classic to torchlight and diablo. I canāt for the life of me figure out how to just refresh my Phantom Falcon pet in Dawn of Masteries. it has a living time of 64 seconds BUT i play with grim internals at 2.3x speed.

GDAutocaster.ini
[general]
suspend_key=Tab
[2]
toggle_key=2
delay=25000
make a config file GDAutocaster.ini in the same folder as GDAutocaster.exe with the content above
start the .exe it should be seen in the task bar or the task manager
make sure no other AHK programs are running at the same time
get in-game and press 2 (assuming the skill is on 2 on the hotbar)
wait and see if the skill is autocast every 25 seconds
when you turn in on with 2 it may start autocasting in a random moment, for example it will start in 8 seconds, but after that it will be cast every 25 seconds
suspend key is to turn on/off the ability to turn on/off autocasting by pressing 2
or sometimes turning on/off autocasting by pressing 2 may not work after starting the .exe and you may need to press Suspend Key two times
the program should remeber that you have the skill autocast which means that
press 2 again to disable the autucasting of the skill
you donāt need to turn autocasting with the same buttons as the skill, you can have it on seperate button, for example

There was a bug in Periodic Cast with initial_delay set. Itās now fixed.
https://github.com/kowariantny/GDAutocaster/raw/master/GDAutocaster.exe
1 button 7 spells config: - hereās sample configuration for a character with many spells to cast
Of course this is sample configuration. You can change timings (if you find they need adjustment), stuff around if youād like. For example you can try lowering the delay and check if it still works between Plague of Corruption, Bloody Pox, Curse of Frailty from 200 ms to 150 if youād like more optimization. Or lowering the initial delay before Sigil/Totems spam casting.
Weāre using 3 buttons
You can make additional separate button for long duration spells if you want (Curse of Frailty, Plague of Curruption) instead of having all spells on one button.
[general]
suspend_key=Tab
[autocasting]
master_hold=`
master_toggle=`
[combo presses]
This is combo for your buffs from the second hotbar (y is for switching hotbars)
combo1=k:y,1,2,3,4,y
delay1=400
This is combo for initial cast of long duration spells while clicking RButton
I put Bloody Pox and Plague of Corruption before Curse because they need precise cast on target
Also added first Devouring Swarm cast Here
combo2=RButton:6,9,8,5
delay2=200
[periodic casts]
Wendigo Totem / Storm Totem / Sigil spamming; Initial delay is not to interrupt Bloody Pox/Curse etc
cast1=RButton:1,2,3
initial_delay1=800
delay1=50
Devouring Swarm - it's has very small range and pretty small duration
so I propose we cast it more often that once per click and hold of RButton
for example every 2 seconds
cast2=RButton:8
initial_delay2=800
delay2=2000

Rune of Displacement spam while holding Space

Hi tqFan - if I wanted to use this feature would the script look like this or do I remove the second [autocasting] and just have it under the one [autocasting] one heading ?

pressed_buttons=s

delay=100
one heading

GDAutocaster.ini
[general]
suspend_key=Tab
[combo holds]
combo1=LButton:7
delay1=150
double_press1=true
double_press1_time_gap=300
Tab - turn the feature on/off
7 - key set in-game to cast AAR (where you have in on hotbar)
can be changed obviously
delay1 - time between the moment of second click and the moment AAR is cast
lower it as much as possible as long as it still working every time
double_press1_time_gap - depending on the user preference and how fast he clicks
time window starting at the moment of the first click you need to click for the second time in order for AAR to start channeling
Does this only support the default action keys (ie 1-0)? I have mine bound to other keys, and noticed that it doesnāt work on something like Q or Z. The program fails to even load.
Yes, all types of autocasting support all keys, I would tell you how to do it but itās not needed because in Grim Dawn all skills can have 2 keys bound to it so you can have both Q, Z and 1, 2 bound to your skills.
How do you know that? Is there some error? Do you have 32-bit processor? You donāt see the process working in Task Manager / Task bar? Thereās no confirmation when the program is working.
Periodic Casts support all keys right out of the gate. Something like this (but I still recommend 1, 2, 3, 4 because why not and they are easily recognizable by anyone and can be Secondary bindings
[periodic casts]
cast1=RButton:Q,W
delay1=50
initial_delay1=0
For the basic hold / toggle autocasting:
[9]
skill=Wind Devil
hold_keys=Space
[2]
skill=Aura
toggle_key=2
one needs to change the appropriate option in autocasting section (I always recommend newest version from GitHub)
From
[autocasting]
pressed_buttons=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
to for example
[autocasting]
pressed_buttons=Q,W
and then you can write something like this (Q, W buttons are automatically presses instead of 9 and 2)
[Q]
skill=Wind Devil
hold_keys=Space
[W]
skill=Aura
toggle_key=2
but I donāt recommend it because itās simply not needed as Iāve already explained
I recommend you telling me what functionality youād like and Iāll write you the best config for it.
